Flipping the cyclooxygenase (Ptgs) genes reveals isoform-specific compensatory functions1,2[S]
Two prostaglandin (PG) H synthases encoded by Ptgs genes, colloquially known as cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2, catalyze the formation of PG endoperoxide H2, the precursor of the major prostanoids.

Design of double-walled carbon nanotubes for biomedical applications [PDF]
Double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) prepared by catalytic chemical vapour deposition were functionalized in such a way that they were optimally designed as a nano-vector for the delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA), which is of great interest for

Lysyl oxidase drives tumour progression by trapping EGF receptors at the cell surface
Lysyl oxidase is able to remodel the extracellular matrix and its expression correlates with poor prognosis. Here the authors show that this protein modulates trapping of the epidermal growth factor receptor at the cell surface, causing persistent ...

Cfp1 is required for gene expression dependent H3K4me3 and H3K9 acetylation in embryonic stem cells [PDF]
BackgroundTrimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) accumulates at promoters in a gene activity dependent manner. The Set1 complex is responsible for most H3K4me3 in somatic cells and contains the conserved subunit Cfp1, which is implicated in ...

Targeting p53 pathways: mechanisms, structures and advances in therapy
The TP53 tumor suppressor is the most frequently altered gene in human cancers, and has been a major focus of oncology research. The p53 protein is a transcription factor that can activate the expression of multiple target genes and plays critical roles ...

Production and characterization of eggs from hens with ovomucoid gene mutation
Ovomucoid is a major egg white protein which is considered as the most dominant allergen in chicken eggs. Owing to the difficulty of separating ovomucoid from egg whites, researchers have adopted genetic deletion for development of hypoallergenic eggs ...

Transposon variants and their effects on gene expression in arabidopsis [PDF]
Transposable elements (TEs) make up the majority of many plant genomes. Their transcription and transposition is controlled through siRNAs and epigenetic marks including DNA methylation.

CRISPR-Cas Targeting of Host Genes as an Antiviral Strategy
Currently, a new gene editing tool—the Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) associated (Cas) system—is becoming a promising approach for genetic manipulation at the genomic level.
